SHEPSHED Dynamo are still looking to rediscover their early season form. After both last Saturday’s game against Gresley Rovers and Tuesday’s Westerby Cup match against Loughborough Dynamo fell victim to the weather, Dynamo have had a long time to reflect on the 6-1 debacle at Willenhall.

With only the points picked up on Boxing Day against troubled Gresley Rovers to show for their last eight games, Shepshed now face an uphill task to even make the Unibond Division One South play-offs.

But on the back of such a confidence sapping defeat at Willenhall was the extended break a bad or good thing for Dynamo?

“The break would be a good thing if we could have trained,” manager Lee Wilson said. “But we haven’t been able to get on the training pitch and we’ve just been doing fitness work.

“Fitness isn’t the problem though as they players are fit enough. There is a lot we have to put right.

“We’ve been on a very slippy decent. From being certainties for the play-offs we have killed ourselves and we need to turn it around and get back up the league.

“Having said that the club has been in relegation trouble for all of the past few seasons and we’re nowhere near that. But likewise it’s disappointing as we’ve slipped down big time.”

Defender Dan Fletcher has flown the Dovecote while Wilson is hoping to bring a centre-forward to the club in time for tomorrow’s (Saturday) home match against Sheffield who have also struggled for form in recent weeks.

Wilson also concedes that Shane Benjamin and a couple of other of his players are still interesting clubs at a higher level.

“A move for Shane could still happen. I’m totally honest with the players and as their manager I want them to play at the highest level they can, but they should go to a club that is right for them and has ambition.”
